our first day in italy we were all pretty exhausted. we landed, drove the two hours from milan to torino, and then spent the rest of the day getting settled, drinking lots of coffee, and walking around a gorgeous park that was a five minute walk from the house we were staying in. we said ciao to cows, goats, sheep, dogs, and italians. it was the perfect welcome to italy!

on day two we took the bus into the city of torino and spent the day walking around, sight seeing, eating vegan gelato, and letting penny splash in any bit of water she could find... good times were had!

going through all of our pictures is just making me ache to go back again. i'm pretty sure penny had the time of her life, and her dad and i most definitely did. why can't ever day be a vacation, amiright?!?!
